Proven enterprise use
Planview Portfolios and Logbook Data Drift Out of Sync Every Day
Manual updates, spreadsheets, disconnected systems and customer-specific configuration create the same problem: Planview does not always reflect reality quickly enough for confident decision-making.
❌ Project data in spreadsheets
PMs track scope, dates and status offline, leaving portfolio reporting out of date.
❌ Finance misalignment
Forecasts, actuals and benefits often live outside Planview, creating conflicting views of portfolio performance.
❌ Logbook migration complexity
Risks, issues, actions and other records need to be mapped into customer-specific Logbook configurations safely.
❌ Manual admin overhead
PMO teams spend hours maintaining data instead of governing it.
FoliosFlow closes this gap with controlled automation, metadata-aware migration support and optional SmartSync optimisation.
Three Steps to Controlled Planview Automation
FoliosFlow connects your source data, secures access with SentinelFlow and optionally applies SmartSync to optimise execution.
⚙️ Step 1: Configure the data flow
Define sources, targets and mappings using structured configuration.
- Use Excel, CSV, JSON, SQL or API-driven sources
- Target portfolios, projects, resources, financial entities and Logbook records
- Map fields using clear, maintainable configuration
- Use KnowledgeFlow support to speed up setup
Example use cases include project creation, status updates, finance alignment and Logbook migration preparation.
🔐 Step 2: Secure authentication
SentinelFlow retrieves credentials from enterprise-approved stores so they do not live in scripts or configs.
- Supports CyberArk, 1Password and Windows Credential Manager
- Keeps access aligned with enterprise security expectations
- Maintains a clear audit trail of execution activity
Result: secure operational access without scattering credentials across files and local scripts.
🔄 Step 3: Validate, simulate and execute
SmartSync and FlowSim help teams identify real changes and preview proposed updates before live execution.
- Create new records where needed
- Update only changed fields
- Simulate mutating services before execution
- Retain logs, outputs and reconciliation evidence
Result: efficient execution and predictable updates at scale.

Governed Planview Logbook Migration and Automation
FoliosFlow can support controlled Planview Logbook workflows, including metadata discovery, source validation, migration preparation, Simulation before execution and reconciliation afterwards.
🔎 Discover configuration
Read the customer’s Logbook configuration before generating migration payloads, reducing reliance on hard-coded IDs.
✅ Validate before writing
Map source values to Logbook fields and options, identify rejects and create a clear preflight evidence set.
🛡️ Simulate before execution
Preview proposed Logbook record creation or updates before anything is written to the target environment.
📋 Reconcile afterwards
Read back Logbook records and compare expected versus actual results instead of relying only on transport success.
Suitable for controlled migration and automation scenarios involving risks, issues, actions and other structured Logbook records.
